slampam Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 Small Cube hack. Removed checkerboard cubes. Cube colors must turn half-and-half when 5th color is used. 5200/A8 Q-bert cube.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Could you expound a bit on what the glitch was for the 5200 version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slampam Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Purple baddies (Ugg and Wrong Way) make a clicking noise on the 5200, but have full-fledged pokey sounds on the A8 cart. The 5200's sound data was "FF FF FF'ed" out. The A8 sound data fit perfectly in this spot. The pointer to the sound location had also been altered so I'm thinking the coder may have planned on adding new sounds but forgot. Nice review: http://cafeman.www9.50megs.com/atari/5200QBert.html Imagine if a 32k rom were the norm. Q*bert's 8k code with 24k worth of samples. Maybe a future project for kenfused.
